Rule for 6.

Divisibility Rule for #6
If the number is divisible by 2 AND 3 then it's divisible by 6. why? because 2 x 3 =6
EXAMPLE- 6396396
2 goes in because it ends with 6 an even number.
Now check if 3 goes in. add all the numbers up.
6+3+9+6+3+9+6 = 42 . 3 goes in 42 so it's divisible by 6.
If your not sure, take this extra step.
4+2 = 6 . 6 goes into 3. There for 6 goes in 6396396.

    GREAT JOB! You explained how to know if a number is divisible by 6 really well. I think this would help a lot of people that are having trouble. But maybe next time you could add a video or a link. But otherwise great job!
